Still Kicking

Not been on the blog for a while but things are going well. It's so busy with Christmas, work activities and helping nurse sick kids. Oh well, keeping my wits about me and focusing on what I need to do to take of myself too.

I'm losing weight at a rate that I am happy with, now down 43 pounds. I'm over my half way mark and going pretty strong. I have indulged in some pleasures food wise but with very modest portions which I am proud of. I am not depriving myself of the joys of the season but know I have to take it in very small doses. I am working out regularly which burns off the calories and is keeping my metabolism revved up.

I'm really looking forward to Christmas this year as I am having company from Texas (yes, folks from the warm south do travel to the frosty north this time of year!) and I am hosting Christmas Eve, Boxing day and a New Year's Eve party! We are also going to a NHL game and to see the Trans Siberian Orchestra.

I'm looking forward to very clothes that I feel so much more confident in and my selection has grown a lot since I fit into some of the things I haven't worn in years. I will do a full update of my photos, stats and other things over the holidays. I have two weeks off and am very happy with that I'll tell you. The consulting job is going extremely well and it looks promising that I will be there longer - good money, great experience and a wonderful group of people to work with! I feel blessed on so many fronts!!!
